It seems like yesterdayBut it was long agoJaney was lovely she was the queen of my nightsThere in the darkness with the radio, playin' lowThe secrets that we sharedMountains that we movedCaught like a wildfire out of control'Til there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove

And I remember what she said to meHow she swore that it never would endI remember how she held me, oh so tightWish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

Against the windWe were running against the windWe were young and strong and we were runningAgainst the wind

The years rolled slowly pastAnd I found myself aloneSurrounded by strangers I thought were my friendsFound myself further and further from my homeI guess I lost my wayThere were oh so many roadsI was living to run and running to liveNever worrying about paying or even how much I owed

Moving eight miles a minute for months at a timeBreaking all of the rules that we bentBegan to find myself searchingSearching for shelter again and again

Against the windI was running against the windI found myself seeking shelterAgainst the wind

But those drifter's days are past me nowI've got so much more to think aboutDeadlines and commitmentsWhat to leave in, what to leave out

Against the windI'm still running against the windWell I'm older now but still runningAgainst the windAgainst the windAgainst the wind....
